Multi-gear hub transmission with three motors and two brakes
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the field of hub motors of electric vehicles, and particularly relates to a multi-gear hub transmission with three motors and two brakes.
Background
Nowadays, electric vehicles are seen everywhere in daily life, and electric vehicles for the elderly have become more and more popular in recent years. In an electric vehicle, a hub motor technology is generally used, and a power device and a transmission device are integrated in a wheel by the hub motor, so that the power part of the electric vehicle is greatly simplified. However, with the increase of travel demands of daily life, the development speed of the hub motor of the electric vehicle is slow, the driving road condition of the electric vehicle is gradually complex, and the bearing, the driving speed and the resistance of the vehicle in daily life are greatly changed. When the vehicle runs on the urban horizontal road at a constant speed and the vehicle load is light, the running resistance is small. When climbing a slope or overloading, the running resistance of the vehicle becomes large, and the required driving force has a difference of several times or even more than ten times. In addition, when the electric vehicle needs to meet the driving power requirement under special road conditions and can drive at fifty kilometers per hour or even faster, the energy of the battery is consumed along with the lapse of driving time. The riding requirement of the electric vehicle under special road conditions cannot be met only by the storage battery of the electric vehicle. The planetary gear train structure in the hub motor is required to increase the torque and adjust the rotating speed range to meet the special running requirement of the electric vehicle. Meanwhile, in daily life, the electric vehicle needs to be frequently started/stopped and regulated in speed, corresponding gear setting is lacked, and only a single speed control handle is used, so that electric energy is wasted and the driving safety problem also exists. But the size of the hub motor is limited, and the hub motor cannot be easily realized by changing gear parameters, increasing gears and the like. Because the planetary gear train has multiple schemes, the transmission specific volume is easy to adjust, the gear shifting is convenient, and the scheme that the proper planetary gear train and the corresponding brake are matched can be designed to solve the problems.
Patent CN108242866A provides an in-wheel motor that adopts two-stage planetary gear, this in-wheel motor has first order planetary gear reduction mechanism and second level planetary gear reduction mechanism, has increased the reduction ratio to the output torque of motor has been increased, thereby has increased the efficiency platform of motor, can adapt to different road conditions and drive power stronger. The invention increases the reduction ratio and the output torque of the motor by adding the planetary gear train, but does not consider the problems of the size of the hub motor of the actual vehicle and the like, and has poor practicability.
Patent CN111224527B discloses an axial magnetic field hub motor, which comprises a main shaft, a hub and an end cover, as well as a motor and a planetary reduction mechanism. The hub motor has the advantages of low cost, high efficiency and wide high-efficiency interval, and can greatly improve the endurance mileage of the electric bicycle. The invention does not consider the reduction ratio of the electric vehicle, improves the single-gear hub motor, and has the advantages that when the electric quantity is insufficient, the hub motor still cuts magnetic induction lines, the riding or pushing is difficult, and corresponding gears such as neutral gear and the like are lacked.
Patent CN104786824A discloses an electric vehicle wheel driving device, which is characterized by comprising a motor and a wheel reduction gear. The invention can integrate the motor and the hub reducer inside the wheel, shorten the axial size and fully utilize the space inside the wheel, thereby reducing the interference of the motor to the suspension and the steering mechanism during steering, prolonging the service life of the hub bearing and optimizing the driving performance of the vehicle. The invention researches the axial size of the hub motor, but the power input aspect of the hub motor and the design of the planetary gear train structure of the hub motor are lack of research after the axial size is reduced, and the invention is only a single-gear hub motor, lacks gears and is inconvenient to drive.
The existing electric vehicle hub motor transmission mostly adopts single-stage reduction gear transmission with only one speed ratio, which is difficult to meet the complicated and changeable power requirements of the electric vehicle, or the climbing capability is poor, the speed is slow, or even if the rotating speed of the driving motor is very high, the driving force and the speed can not be well considered, and the electric energy is wasted. The existing hub motor related inventions have a plurality of optimization schemes on the aspect of structural dimension, but the optimized hub motor input is not considered. If the electric vehicle adopts the hub motor transmission with multiple gears and three powers, the power performance of the electric vehicle can be obviously improved, and the requirements on a driving motor and a power battery pack can be reduced, so that the cost of a power system of the electric vehicle is reduced, and resources are saved. Therefore, the development of the hub motor transmission of the electric vehicle with the multi-gear speed change three motors is an important precondition for the popularization of the electric vehicle.

with reference to fig. 1, 2, 3, 4 and table 2, the transmission routes of the gears are described as follows:
1. forward first gear
As shown in fig. 2, when the electric motor M is started, hydraulic oil is supplied to the hydraulic cylinder of the first brake B1 through the oil passage 9, the piston rod 5 is pushed to engage the steel plate 11 with the friction plate 12, and the first brake B1 brakes the brake, and the oil is supplied through a path indicated by an arrow B in fig. 2. At this time, the rotation speed of the planet carrier H is zero. The central wheel 4, the planet wheel 3, the rotor 2 form a fixed-axis wheel train. The output power of the motor M is transmitted to the planet wheel 3 through a key, the planet carrier H brakes at the moment, the rotating speed of the planet wheel 3 is absolute rotating speed, and the planet wheel 3 transmits the power to the rotor 2 to output the power. The transmission path of the power is shown by the arrow line a in fig. 2.
2. Forward second gear
